The use of computer technologies for increasing the efficiency of physics teaching is discussed. Proposed
approach includes the development of professionally oriented teaching, the use of multimedia lecture
courses, the use of Learning Management Systems (such as Blackboard Learn and MOODLE), webinars,
etc. It is proposed to organize distributed educational system in a form of Grid infrastructure joining
educational facilities of 4 St. Petersburg universities. This Grid infrastructure can provide equal access to
all kinds of resources for the students and lecturers in order to teach and study physics more efficiently.
